I have created this blog to hold myself accountable. It is time for me to get back in shape, and feel good about my body again.
My objective is to cook myself healthy meals and not sacrifice flavor or creativity. By cooking my own meals everyday, I can control exactly what goes into my body.

Day 182

For Breakfast: Granola with almond milk and a couple of sips of coffee.

I went to my final today at 8:30, I knew everything on the test! OUr studying really paid off and we will see if I made sure to write everything down. With written response questions you never know how the grade is going to turn out, but I did the best I could and I was very thorough. I feel amazing, I'm on spring break!

Cassi met me after class and we went to the book store and returned my books. Then we went to Recycled Cycles and got my bike fixed. I don't know why I waited so long to have it fixed, maybe I was thinking that it was going to cost a bit of money, but he fixed it in 10 minutes and it cost 7 dollars! Now my bike is as good as new and I am going to ride it all over during spring break!

For Lunch: Black Bean and Chicken Chili.

Cassi and I ran all over the place today looking at bikes for her and running random errands. Then we went our to celebrate my ending of the quarter!

We went to The Matador and had a Margarita and a couple of appetizers ( fish taco, and romaine salad). Then we went to the movies! We saw Crazy Heart which was good, amazing acting, I like Jeff Bridges.

We stopped by the condo to finish up some laundry because we ran out of quarters and Dad was there! I had not seen him since before he left for London, it was great to see him. By the end of the night Cassi and I were exhausted, we went home and went to bed.

About Me

My name is Katy, I am currently a student at University of Washington and I live in Seattle with my wonderful girlfriend, Cassi. This past April, we flew down to Las Vegas to play in a soccer tournament. We play year round on an all women's team here in Seattle. In the first game of the weekend, I heard three loud "pops" in my knee and came crashing to the ground. I tore my ACL and had surgery, replacing the ligament completely with part of my hamstring. Not being able to walk, and play soccer made me realize that I was taking my body for granted. I am a naturally athletic person, and I have let myself get out of shape. Since I graduated high school in 2005 I have gained a lot of weight. My knee injury has put things into perspective for me and realizing how lucky I am to be, an otherwise healthy person, makes me feel foolish for not taking care of myself. It's time for me to change my life.
